Do not rely on a fireproof safe to store your computer media. Fireproof safes are designed for paper; a CD, DVD, floppy disk or a magnetic tape will melt. Get a media safe for those items. Better yet, store data off site!

Do not make pirated copies of important software. Even if you can do that (often you cannot) they might not work, and you could create serious legal problems for yourself. Contact your technology vendor if you don’t understand your options.

Do not distribute your plan to people that don’t need to have it. Your plan will contain sensitive and secure information that could be used by a disgruntled employee for inappropriate purposes. Great Idea is to store your plan in a secure website; easy to access and passwords can be changed easily.
